”Halt.” Yun Mengqi called out to the Zhong Miao Yi and took a deep breath. ”I'll go back and report this to Esteemed Empress Dowager later. Come over to the Legitimate Wife after dinner.
Zhong Miao Yi nodded her head and agreed.
After the Zhong Miao Yi had left, Bao`er asked, ”The Empress knows very well that the Cloud Concubine will not agree, so why are you asking me this question?”
Yun Mengqi sighed, ”I don't know, I'm very confused. Forget it, let's go to the empress dowager first.”
Empress Dowager Xi and East Empress Dowager were discussing about Zhou Xu's child together. At their age, excluding their family, the most important thing was that they liked their child the most.
Having a grandson to show his filial piety was the happiest thing in the world.
When Yun Mengqi came, Empress Dowager Xi was planning to send some more things to Zhou Fu when she heard that Yun Mengqi had arrived. She waved her hand, ”It's good that you're here, come to This Dowager's place.”
Empress Dowager Xi pulled Yun Mengqi over, pointed at the items on the list and asked, ”Look, do you want these things?”
Empress Dowager Xi was still thinking about Yun Mengqi. ”You suffered losses before, so you should make up for it as soon as possible. Give birth to a grandson for This Dowager. ”
Yun Mengqi's face immediately flushed red. ”Where did the empress dowager say that?
Her expression made both emperors laugh.
”Empress Dowager, chenqie came because I have something to tell the empress dowager.” Yun Mengqi said in a spoiled manner, as if she was back in the past.
Empress Dowager Xi put down the things in her hands and asked softly, ”What is it?”
”Chenqie asked the Emperor, saying that it was to celebrate for Imperial Consort X, and the Emperor has already agreed. Chenqie asked Yunshu to help her prepare this matter, and I've already seen it. Ten days from now, it will be a good day.” After Yun Mengqi finished speaking, she laughed, ”When the time comes, everyone will be happy together. After all, she is the first child of the palace.
Empress Dowager Xi nodded, but made no comment. ”Celebrating is naturally not a problem. ”But can a concubine do this kind of thing well?”
Yun Mengqi laughed: ”Chenqie will do her best to teach her. I presume there won't be any big problems.”
Once Yun Mengqi said that, Empress Dowager Xi understood the meaning behind her words. She narrowed her eyes and pointed out, ”Then you still have to be careful, understand?”
Yun Mengqi nodded her head and stood up. ”Chenqie understands, there are countless of things that need to be done. From where I started, chenqie still needs to go and take care of it, so I won't disturb the empress dowager anymore.”
Empress Dowager Xi nodded slightly and sent Yun Mengqi out.
”Isn't it a bit inappropriate for a concubine to do the same?” East Empress Dowager listened for a long time. After Yun Mengqi left, she asked slowly.
Empress Dowager Xi picked up the list again and looked at it. ”Whether it's appropriate or not, it's all a matter of young people like them. This Dowager and you are old, so it doesn't matter. In a few years, This Dowager and you will both be gone. Just let them go. ”
In the palace, it was not easy to survive, but one had to put forth all of their strength.
Zhong Miao Yi's status was lower than others by a level, which meant that she was destined to suffer even more pain and suffering than others.
If she could adapt, then she could live. The harem had always been cruel, and the empress dowager was a former victor, hence no matter how Yun Mengqi had tortured her, she didn't want to interfere in her plans. At most, she would stop there.
